In December 1955, the Danish Atomic Energy Commission (Danish: Atomenergikommissionen, AEK) was established. The Commission consisted of 24 members, with Bohr as its chairman, and had oversight over the development and promotion of nuclear energy in Denmark. The AEK established a nuclear research site in Risø which was officially inaugurated on 6 June 1958.
